Golden Windrows

Golden Windrows pastel 6x12 (sold)

August begins the harvest season, here you see the grain cut and put in neat rows ready for the combine to come and separate the grain from the chaf. These golden rows dry only briefly in the sun and then are gone again for another year. They remind me of little paths that I could run through to some magical place.

About Me

I have 5 children and 4 stepchildren, all grown. I teach painting to anyone who wants to learn,We raise a very large garden and share produce with neighbors and foodshelves. I am an ambitious canner and preserver of many types. I cannot imagine my life without painting and sharing the gift with others.
